It'll take you about a week or so then all of a soulden you'll love the coaster !!! 1st night i had mine i couldnt use it, went out a week on and didnt ride a line without doing 180 to fakies best place to learn how to use it is a big carpark

Lil danny's getting damm good for his small stature enjoyed it just a shame he didnt use any of the clips from darlington

music suited the riding, riding was good (tail tap, fakie to full cab looked spot on ) only thing lacking was the choice of angles and camera quality (which is probs down to youtube) nice little edit all together !

Did you swap it with robbie bell ???? havnt seen that bike in aaaages

seriously that looks scarely like mine (except for the blue bars and hubs ) which means by my book its perfect

No as far as i know he got it through his work as a production model (they have a spare one of them in) looks so much nicer in real life, ride's nice too once you get used to the slight wider BB.

Only ever used one try-all free wheel (tom from yarms), found it skipped under pressure but because of the number of engagements you could barely feel the skip (it just passed onto the next engagement). Try-all cranks are beast, i have them on my mod. They're stiff and weigh next to nothing

looks loverly... you guys riding northallerton tommorow ???

is it possible to run the coaster with pegs ??? is there enough axle to fit them on ????

Of course you can, and thank you

well.... went down to a friend trails about 3 weeks ago, took the vintage canon have-1 slr and finally got them exposed,scanned and edited: Guy called Riko, tweeked double can (contrast was boosted from original) Robbie tabled air in the pipe at the bottom of the trails (blurred i know but its still a nice air) Me foot jam (not landed ) cant remember who took this anyway (colour boosted and slight blur added here) Riko again (he did this one footed on the next double ) sepia effect added thats all sorry bout the terrible quality (between photo bucket and my scanner somethings gone wrong

JT the smoothest rider i think ive ever seen, he'll never manage to scratches it looking lovely jt, gonna have to ride whitby again soon !!!

nah i failed cos i did f**k all in lessons and its in wood cos the schools cnc mill couldn't cut metal i cant remember why the disc is on the wheel there but yeah it wasn't meant to be used with the disc on

did this exact thing as my a level project and FAILED !!!! the course that is, any way here's my prototype (cnc milled from mdf) :

loved it !!!!!!

It says "the sever may be busy and it may take upto 3 hours for confirmation" or something like that but an hour of clicking 4 week end tickets and 2 day tickets later and im happy GF's mums credit card ballance isnt so happy now though

Both look sooooo nice tom did you sort out the other snapped spoke on the sherco yet ???

They're just as good if not better than primo v monsters IMO, roll realy smooth with 80+ PSI and for grinds they're perfect (the side walls and thread pattern are the same). My only down on then is how difficult it was to get onto the rim but thats nothing realy

sprayd the forks ???? looks lovely you riding northallerton this sunday ???

This may not be the best sugestion but there isnt a huge market for a trials park, yes you may get a good selection of people on here saying they'd use it but in comparrison to other sports were tiny!!! bmx/skateing in this country has a huge following and even skate parks strugle to make money. ape skate in thornaby closed 4 times because of kids falling over and claiming on insurance (thus putting theyre insurance up and driving them out of buisness) another thing to think about is mid week (outside school hol's) it would be dead !!! sorry sound realy negative i know but i think they're all fair points to be honest to realy make it work you would need: to be based somewhere like the midlands (easy for everyone to get too) some form of legal deal with users (a disclamer of some sort claiming no responseability) a very cheap rent a constant flow of users (not just kid on school hol's) another option may be to buy an old disused ware house ???? yes it may need work to get it water tight ect... but the morgage on it probably wouldnt be much more than renting a new unit, problem with that idea is if you were willing to risk owing that much money to a bank, but in the worst case with owning land you could sell it to a developer (which is what happened to ape skate). meh thats all i can think of at the min

If theyre just bent you/an engineering firm could probs straighten it out for you
